I am modifying the page to bring it up to the same standard as List of spaceflights (2006), by installing the new templates and format. Please do not edit while the {{inuse }} tag is in place. --GW_Simulations|User Page | Talk | Contribs | E-mail 21:07, 7 June 2006 (UTC) Reply

The entry for the Mariner 2 launch (27-Aug) currently asserts only, "First successful US Venus mission. Fly-by on December 14, 1962." I believe based on NSSDC information this was the first successful encounter of any space probe with any planet (other than Earth). There was no data returned from Venera 2, and no prior probes of other planets. I don't have an iron-clad source for this, though. Suggestions? (sdsds - talk ) 01:16, 27 August 2008 (UTC) Reply
